Perfect location

We loved this house. It was more than enough room for my husband and myself plus my adult children with my precious grandson. All bedrooms have ocean views. Fell asleep every night in comfortable beds with the sound of crashing waves. Would definitely stay again.

Very neglected and dirty

The house was very neglected and dirty SOME of the many issues were the following: No Screens on the doors or windows Ants all over the kitchen Broken handle on the slider to the deck from the living room NO hangers except a few wire ones that were bent out of shape The majority of the dishes were chipped The kitchen was especially dirty The big round chair in the living room was broken There was excessive amounts of sand in the entire house No remote control for the DVD player No blinds on the "street" side of the house Very disappointed in this rental. The pictures on the website are clearly very old and in no way represent its current condition of this house.

The perfect vacation

What a blessing beach home, was everything our family desired and MORE.. the location entertained the teens by being walking distance to all stores, perfect being a few steps to the ocean for all little ones and the sound of waves crashing 24 hours a day made this trip the reset that our family needed! The house was in perfect condition, updated and stocked with everything we would need to feel at home!
